Is Obama Creating a Martial-law-ready Military?

What kind of leader wants a military more loyal to himself than to the rule of law? 

And why? 

These are two questions to ponder when considering the strange happenings in the armed forces since Barack Obama took office. 

Let's start with a hypothetical. Let's say you were a hard-left-wing commander in chief who wanted the military firmly in your corner. You'd certainly note that our armed forces have been a bastion of conservatism and Christian faith, and you'd know that its members generally weren't very fond of you. So how would you go about changing this?

  1. I just posted this on the main blog I frequent. Oddly this was the next article I read. Here was my response.

    Veterans, DO remember the *Military Bonus Check* Protests in 1932!
    If you think you’re gonna protest the Federal Government and get way with it, you’re badly mistaken.

    OTOH, look at it this way. Say, you’re now in the military just as soldiers were in 1932. The government is being protested by veterans and or civilians, say a combination, which was actually what happened in 1932. You are ordered by your commander to disperse the protesters because of whatever reasons the government tells you. Or simply put, you are ordered to disperse them, using force if necessary. Well; what are you gonna do now? You’re F*CKED! You ARE gonna just follow orders like the good ole soldier you are…. Yep, you surly will. Similar to Kent State too, and fire on the crowd. Or you follow orders just like thousands did when Lincoln called up for troops. For example, at the Gettysburg Battle, the New Jersey troops were so fed up of the war, including their governor, he signed an order directing ALL New Jersey troops to leave the battlefield and come home, saying it was not their fight. Lincoln countermanded the order, stating any soldier from New Jersey leaving the battlefield is to be shot and in the back if running away. He then threatened to imprison the governor of New Jersey if he did retract his order in recalling the New Jersey troops. Don’t you tell me you wouldn’t have done the same thing if ordered. You’d fire on anyone you are ordered too! If Obama orders it, it WILL be done! Even to your own! It’s happened before and I will gua-ran-dam-tee you it will happen again. So don’t get on your high horse claiming you’re better than that….
